Hillsborough County, FL
QUEENTILE stone-coated steel roof tiles are stocked at 4 counters in Tampa, Hillsborough County. Roofs here take salt air and coastal wind, so the aluminum-zinc core and the 155 mph wind rating are the specifications that matter most.
Tampa is where QUEENTILE US is based, and it has the densest distributor coverage in the state — four stocking branches across three chains. Our Webster warehouse is about an hour north on I-75.

Why stone-coated steel
QUEENTILE panels are wind-rated to 155 mph (250 km/h), and the Verona and Shake profiles carry TAS 125 test reports — the Florida protocol for roof-system performance. The panels interlock and fasten mechanically to lath battens rather than sitting as individually bedded field tiles, so an uplift event has a continuous fastened plane to work against instead of a course of separate pieces.
The steel core is coated on both faces with aluminum-zinc — up to six times more rust-resistant than conventional galvanized steel — and then buried under natural basalt granules in a patented acrylic binder and a sealed acrylic glaze. On a barrier island, a bayfront street, or anywhere the afternoon breeze carries salt inland, that stack is what stands between the roof and a decade of corrosion.
A QUEENTILE roof weighs under 1.4 lb per square foot. Concrete and clay barrel tile weigh several times that, which is why a Mediterranean reroof so often turns into a structural conversation first. Verona gives you the deep half-round course and the shadow line at a fraction of the dead load, on the framing that is already there.
